Good portion and taste for the given price. Comfortable atmospehere. I would recommend their buttermilk chicken set.

Fish is fresh and crispy. Matcha is thick and delicious. Double shot doesn’t charge for extra. Croffle is also very crispy and ice cream is delicious.

Happy customer.. yummy food with a good price.. got cakes also.. will come again..

From the outside looks expensive but once seeing the menu, price is affordable

Both my husband and daughter really like their carbonara spagetti. We’ve tried other menu (nasi lemak, maggi goreng, nasi buttermilk crispy chicken) and all food is good! Things for improvement: the serving time and ventilation.

Place was almost empty. Ordered our food and food were served promptly. Food was tasty but portion abit small.
